As Black History Month begins, it’s important we remember the significance of celebrating People of Color all year long. While we take one month a year to focus in, this celebration should not stop once February is over.

We are each made in God’s image and this is a beautiful time to celebrate just that! This month is important, even if your church doesn’t regularly celebrate. Why?

  1. God Calls Us to Unity
  2. God Calls Us to Love
  3. God Calls Us to Redemption

Here are some ideas for celebrating Black History—this month and beyond.
